October 12, 1737

1737 October 12 (Wednesday).  I went to Worcester to see Hugh Henderson, found him in much the same distressed state that I left him in, but I hope more knowing and acquainted with his Condition and with his Duty.  N.B. Mr. Burr at the Goal with me.  I prayed with him, a multitude attending.  He earnestly desired me to see him again and wishes over and over that I would preach to him.

 

N.B. When I called at Mr. Cushing’s[1] as I went up, Coll. Woods was there, on his return from Rutland.  As I returned in the evening, there rose a storm of Lightening and Rain.  Mr. Lock came and carried in Corn.
